It isn't softmac, it is ieee80211. The following messages were the error indicating that the TKIP modules was not available.: ioctl[SIOCSIWENCODEEXT]: Invalid argument Driver did not support SIOCSIWENCODEEXT WPA: Failed to set PTK to the driver. If you think the error message should be stronger, talk to the Intel guys as they are the maintainers of the ieee80211 component.
